I’ve decided to once again split my last trip into two separate posts as they are so different. This post concentrates on the eclipse and my time leading up to the event.

 
My next post will cover my journey through the Abajo Mountains of Utah and Dolores Canyon of Colorado. This portion will feature many photos of colorful fall colors.

Very nice photos. I sent links to your post to several of my friends. Cedar Mesa and Bears Ears are quite spectacular even without an eclipse.

Wow, what a great post!  I thought about traveling to see the eclipse but in the end did not, so it was great to experience it a bit through your post.  The photos, especially the eclipse composite are absolutely spectacular.  Even without the eclipse it appears the area warrants a long visit.  Thanks so much for sharing.

My thanks to ski, Sagebrush, AWG, Frank, JWL, dr, Oregon, and Occidental for your comments. I appreciate learning your thoughts and reactions. 

 

​I've processed the photos from the rest of the trip and written the rough draft. Hopefully I'll get that published real soon.
